Dice Game

The Dice Game is a kind of a minigame that appears on Devil May Cry 4. This game consists of a dice that moves away when hit, a statue known as "your other self", and different colored platforms that can activate various effects.

Goals and Mechanics
The Goal of the game is to move "your other self" to a designated place, probably the last platform, or a special platform that teleports you to new areas. Moving is simple, just strike the dice and it will roll, signifying the number of platforms the statue will move. A single slice from the Red Queen or a single shot of the Blue Rose moves the dice gently, while strong attacks like Buster, Exceed, or Charged Shot may send the dice flying, resulting into random numbers.

Platforms
There are different platforms concerning in this type of game. Depending on the dice, your statue will move to a number of platforms with different colors with different effects. Here are the colors of platforms with their effects:
 * White - The platform you start out with. It is known as a "safe" platform since it does not trigger any special effects. With this platform, a new dice will come out.
 * Red - The "danger" platform, this platform spawns out hazards and demons for you to fight. Kill the demons, or survive the hazards to move on.
 * Yellow - The "advantage" platforms. These platforms allows you to progress easily by means of transporting the statue into a new section of platforms.
 * Blue - The "luck" platform, this color of platform provides collecting of Orbs either by means of raining Orbs or Treasure Chests
 * Purple - A "cursed" platform, it is supposed to be a white platform covered with a purple plate. This does much like Red platforms spawning demons you need to kill.

Gameplay
As Nero, you need to move your statue on the front of the magic seal in Mission 6, aslo in Mission 19 where you need to move your statue into some kind of a portal, allowing you to move along the Stairway to Heaven.

Although Dante was able to enter into a Dice Game on Mission 16, he "cheated" by means of slicing the dice before it would activate the game. In Dante's position, cheating in the Dice Game spawned different kinds of demons filling the area.
